JAN, 32 YEARS

Dear future Host Family,

Good day,

I would like to apply as your Au Pair.

I am Jan Kenneth, 29 years old, currently living in the Philippines from the province of Nueva Vizcaya. I am a Filipino citizen. I am the only child of my parents, but I have an older adopted sister and a younger half-sister. My parents got separated when I was young. My mom is working abroad as a Domestic helper and my Dad is a tailor.

I finished college with the degree of Bachelor of Science in Information Technology at Saint Mary's University, Bayombong, Nueva Vizcaya. Luckily, I got employed after I graduated. I worked from different business fields and companies in the province. But due to the low wages, I decided to try my luck and work in the city. Fortunately, I got hired and employed here in Accenture, Inc. Philippines, a BPO company. I’ve been working here for 3 years. My position is Collections Support Associate in line with Finance and Accounting field and this is my third project in the company. My first and second were in health field.

I am a family-oriented and God-fearing person. My religion is Christian. I am a loving, caring, responsible, respectful, enthusiastic, hardworking and dedicated woman. I remember when I was in my high school and college days; I was able to take good care of my 2 cousins and my half-sister. I helped them in their studies and cooked meals for them. I got pregnant early but I pursued and completed my education. Now, I am a mother of two. My first born is a girl who is 11 years old and my second is a boy turning 5 this coming June. I am a working mom ever since I finished my studies. After work, I take good care of my kids and do all the household chores. I love playing around and do some funny things with them, because I know having a quality time with your kids is the most precious thing for them that they can treasure for their whole life. During my spare time, since Saturdays and Sundays are my rest days, my kids and I dance, I play guitar and we sing together, we do laundry, we cook and we wash dishes together. Sometimes, we go to our homestead in the mountain to plant vegetables and fruits. We go for camping and go for picnic in the river or in swimming resorts. And during Sundays, our family attends worship services.

With these experiences, I believe that I can perform well on the given duties to me. I am aspiring to become an Au pair because I want to travel abroad, meet, and get along with new people. I want to experience foreign cultures and practices, and in return, they can also learn from me on how and what Filipino culture is. I also want to discover the beautiful nature from the other side of the world. I am a nature-lover who loves to explore. Together with my partner, we ride, go on road trips, hike mountains, and go to beautiful places that we have never been before. Above all of these, I want to provide the needs of my kids and my family. I want to pay back the sacrifices of my parents because now they are getting older. My family is my inspiration and motivators. These are my desires and I want to make it come true by the help of you. This is all about a simply me.

If given a chance and there is an opportunity for me to become your Au Pair, I will assure you that I will do my very best to meet your expectations and do what is required to be done. I will do my best to do my responsibilities to provide good service with you.

Thank you very much.

Yours truly,

Janneth
